Hello, can i ask if is this lens compatible with mirrorless fullframe canon camera ? like R8

I tried that lense with my R6 II. AF didn't work reliable in servo-mode and the lense was noisy while trying to focus. Update of firmware didn't help. Tamron support told me to send for repair! I returned the lense to the dealer. No Tamron for me.

having owned on for almost 20 years, and currently have a R5. There is still something about the old thing, aside the dodgy flash release they are great.

Why you mention that u need stabilization only for video?! For photo its almost not usable.

Did you have to update your lens prior to use? Or i can just buy one. Fresh outta box and use it no issues?

You lost me with the noise. I still prefer Canon 24-70

Color management?

If you want to strip away all the features and get back to the bare bones get a 1930s Leica. Or better still a Wista 4x5. Digital is great but it’s a crutch.

well, my FIRST DSLR (and I stil have it....bur don't use it anymore )👍

My second DSLR after my brand new Nikon D70s broke 1 week! Talk about heartbreak😢 Great camera! So many pros used it for many years. The AF is perfectly good just use the centre AF point only. You need to work like a film shooter :) I have huge 5 ft wide stitched panoramas that look incredible.

Great video ! Made me want to shoot exclusively in BW for sure. I watched the new Civil War movie and loved the use of BW with the film camera. Super impactful

Stoked to see you fell in love with the 20d! It's a great old gal. I guess at the end of the day, when you do enough processing in Lightroom to an image and you're posting it to social media it doesn't matter which camera you use. I think it's more about what camera feels good in your hand, the menus, and the overall experience which determines which one you grab off the shelf - unless you're a professional who needs say a larger sensor, and more bells and whistles.

20d is a great camera. Just sold mine (along with a 50mm prime) to a friend who is learning photography - forces you to really learn the triangle (aperture, shutter, iso) and is very basic. But it takes such amazing photos.

Just out of curiosity, im a newer photographer and actually have a 20D. Do you just plug the camera into the computer to get the photos off or how does that work with computers today? im still figuring out how it works and stuff and want to know if I need to order something specific to remove photos or what?

I shot a hole year only black and white in 2023...true about the colors not interfering the scene anymore. Lights, shadows, shapes and much more focus on the subject as well. My color photography is today way more simplified, minimalistic. Very interesting learning curve that makes me think today before shooting...are the colors adding anything to the picture ? If not...black and white it will be (mostly direct in camera). Great pictures with a great camera. Started myself with a 30D back in 2007. I'm in the Fuji system now and love it. Got myself a Nikon D2X though two years ago...might get my hands on a Canon from the good old days again soon :O)

What picture settings did you use for the B&W JPEGs straight out of the camera please ? e.g. contrast, if a colour filter used etc. I have a Canon 20D and it would give me a great excuse to use it to have a go a SOOC B&W images.

Hi Paul... I brought greetings to you from Turkey. I have a question. You said you're currently using a Tamron 24-70 G2 with an R6 M2. How does Lens and Sensor anti-vibration work in this combination? How does the Auto Focus system work? Are you satisfied? Did you have any trouble with this? Thanks....

Hello Paul. I send greetings to you from Turkey. I have a question. You said you're currently using a Tamron 24-70 G2 with an R6 M2. How does Lens and Sensor anti-vibration work in this combination? How does the Auto Focus system work? Are you satisfied? Did you have any trouble with this?

Thank you for the video. In fact, the photography industry has been immensely polluted. New cameras are announced every now and then that drives few photographers crazy. New technology is science but, photography is an art which doesn’t change. Therefore, I decided to focus more on photography and zero attention to new releases. I know the latest sensation is Sony A9III but it hardly makes any sense to me. So, I use older Canon DSLRs and bought them real cheap over the last five years. What a wonderful way to feast on ignorance of users and build up a solid arsenal that will carry me through at least ten years from now or even more.

Hi it is worth to buy 24-70 g2 lense for canon rp or i should go with sigma 24-70 2.8...or there is any problem in autofocus please reply

I've recently started shooting in both RAW and JPG, and the vast majority of my pictures are from the JPG. If I want to do something that the JPG can't handle (highlight recovery, object removal, HDR, etc) I use the RAW file. I'm using a Canon R6 and a Fujifilm X100S, and this process works well with both.

Thank you for your video! Would this lens fit on my Rebel T7i?

Video ruined by the distracting muzak.

I'm a new subscriber and really enjoyed this. I love playing with old DSLR's and would love to see how much more you can get out of a raw file compared to a JPEG on the 20D. Contemplating getting a Lightroom subscription and want to see if it's worth while given the kind of gear I like to shoot with. Keep up the great work 👍

Is it compatible with Canon 250D with no adapter?

Heyyyy, my photo made a video!! Haha. Good job, babes!! 🤍

I do not understand why you need background muzak which is extremely distracting - the equivalent of noise in photography.

I have that lens and the 70-200mm 2.8. Very nice lenses. The 24-70 lives on my Canon 6D. I use an adapter and run it on a Sony a5000 and a5100. Both lenses work well with the adapter. I will admit though. Seeing the little Sonys on the 70-200 looks well, I'm thinking a mouse and an elephant. Let your gutter mind figure that out. LOL. The 24-70 is a bit heavy. I had to sell some stuff to get the two Tamrons. Would I like some L glass? Sure. But the cost of the Tamrons vs the same in L glass. It was have the two in Tamron, or not in Canon.

That Shutter Smack sound. So loud and pleasent!

This was my second ever DSLR. I got it for $1200 in 2006 and boy was I happy. This was THEE APSC camera to have back then. And compared to the 5D, It was so affordable.

That filmic quality and the back-to-basics approach. Exactly why I ordered another 20D to replace the one I gave my son. It would be a bit crass to ask for it back. LOL You make good points. Not having the big screen on the back so you can check the detail of every shot take that as a suggestion to shoot it like a film camera. Think about your shot before you take it. How you want it to look. What aperture and shutter speed within the limitations of available ISO will give you that. Frame in the viewfinder, shoot, and like a film camera, wait until you get home to really see how those shots came out. Analyze why the great ones grab you and, why the not-so-good ones fail. How can you do it better the next time? The beauty of those old digital cameras is that you still have to be a thinking photographer to get the best images. As you said, that translates to being better when you are using the higher-end gear. And, it's cheaper than running a lot of film these days.

I have that same lens, and the 70-200mm f2.8. I use them primarily on a Canon 6D and 80D. The real fun is using an adapter and using them on a little Sony a5000. It's more that you mount the camera on the lens than the lens on the camera. They work though. As I commented on your original 20D video, I just ordered another 20D today to replace the one I gave my son a while back. You have encouraged me to use the 20D with these lenses. Now, if the local pawn shop puts that Canon 100-400mm USMII L on clearance at a great price. Yes, the sickness is real.

I'm from the film era. Both for personal work and for a while there for a living. We had to get things right with basic cameras and film selection. High ISO (ASA back then) films were 800-1600 (sometimes pushed to 3200). You're right. Nothing to get in the way and you needed to know what you were doing and trying to accomplish. Even today, my goto is a Canon 6D or an 80D if I want to get fancy. Today I did order a 20D again. I have one that is converted for IR and takes some great images. I had another one I had picked up but gave to my son so he could try his hand at photography. I finally decided to get another 20D just for that more analog feeling of working with a film SLR without the expense of film (though I do have film cameras too.) As you noted, the color science on the older Canons is lovely. Makers back then were trying to replicate film more to wean folks over to digital. So it is no surprise that the old sensors have a creamier, more filmic look to them. You are right. Working in that stripped down to basics manner can tune up old skills and make you see better as a photographer. And be a better photographer. Great video with real insight.

I'd love to own this one but its way too expensive. I got the 10-24mm for only 149,- tho which is nice.

It is worth to buy this lense for canon rp?

For someone who shoots for fun like me, I think old cameras are more challenging, more interesting, I myself use a 30d which is also an old camera, there iis something with the cam that is interesting. Coming from something like the m10 and the 60d, the 30d is more difficult in many areas. But i found it challenging, and there is something from the images from the 30d that I like. The classic tones of old dslrs maybe, but I love my 30d.

I used to photograph weddings 10+ years ago with a Canon 20D. Fantastic camera! Recently I purchased a used 30D, minor upgrade to the 20D and I feel the same as you, this is photography at its simplest and best. The menu system on these cameras is so simple, every button means something useful, and it fits my hand like a glove. I got myself the kit lens it used to come with, the 17-85 USM IS and that lens is so great! Trying to decide what prime I want, but for now I am re-enjoying photography again, not in a professional capacity now, but for myself and my family and friends. Now I'm having fun again! Cheers, and spectacular photos!

I agree with all your comments. I have an EM1 Mark III and love the system. I sell and exhibit my work and no one has ever asked what kind of camera I use. Its really all about who's behind the lens!

I bought one of these back in 2017 and have used it since! Its fun using down to earth cameras

Plugins alternative to film photography? No. It's really not an alternative. I have a full set of VSCO film simulations and they look great, BUT it's not an alternative to going out with a roll of film in your camera and having to really think about what you're doing. Just uploading photos from your SD card cannot compare to taking time in a dark room, rolling the film on a spool and later developing with chosen procedure, drying the film, scanning it, to be able to see the photos.

i had it... 20 years ago

Did I just watch a 25-minute commercial??

I felt like I was looking at the mirror listening to this first monologue😅

May I ask did you replace the rubber cover for the usb port? That thing broke into dust in a week after my dad take it out from the moisture proof box and pass on to me. Currently trying to start learning photo shooting with it, and just like you said int the video, the simple of this camera makes me not feeling overwhelming.And your vid gives me confident on this machine. Nice video!

I've still got my Rebel XTi, just slightly newer than the EOS 20D, but with the same simplicity. It is also strikingly more solidly built than my current EOS R8 even though it was the base DSLR at the time. Plus it has full support for a battery grip. You have to go pretty high up the current Canon product line to find battery grip support.

I recently picked up a 30D at a flea market with a 28-80MM lens. I charged it up and it worked great. A friend bought it from me and he loves it. People get so wrapped up the mega-pixel hype. I'm really a Nikon guy and my favorite camera is the D700. Love the picts that come out of it. I agree that simplification is better and I love black and white. I also don't want a computer with a lens that does all of the work for me. Great video.

I have a question I did buy this Camera recently Well when I look through the view Finder and the focus point is in the middle for example And I click the shutter to focus I see the focus point in red and the one under it with red too but not the same red I get on the middle focus point So is there a problem with my copy of the camera or is it normal Pls answer my question and I will be thankful

Great video and message, I'm currently shooting with my Nikon D300 and it's a joy to use, and it's build to last a lifetime. Keep on making great contents like this, your channel is fire!

I have it on my Z8 with ftz adapter and it’s phenomenal. Got it used in mint condition for $700 usd

From what I heard ... may be off... I heard that a 20D user can take B&W jpeg photos, and at the same time the RAW files can be color. I'll find out soon myself- on order.
